Bird City Gull Kittiwake Nest Nesting Risa Tridactyla Town Urban Wild Life Wildlife New Castle Newcastle Tyne


EDITORS COMMENTS
Newcastle: Where Gulls Rule the Concrete Jungle!". In this print by David Tipling, we witness an extraordinary sight that perfectly encapsulates the unique blend of urban and wild in Newcastle city centre. Perched high on a bridge overlooking the bustling streets below, a colony of Black-legged Kittiwakes has made their unexpected home amidst the concrete jungle. These feathered daredevils have defied all odds, choosing to nest in one of Britain's most vibrant cities instead of traditional coastal cliffs. With their striking white plumage contrasting against the backdrop of towering buildings and busy traffic, these gulls have become unlikely celebrities among both locals and tourists alike. As pedestrians stroll beneath them, completely unaware of this hidden avian community above, it is as if these fearless birds are saying: "Hey humans! We're here too!". Their nests serve as a reminder that nature can thrive even in the most unexpected places. With their playful antics and melodious calls echoing through the city streets, these urban kittiwakes bring a touch of untamed wilderness to Newcastle. So next time you find yourself wandering through this lively town along River Tyne, don't forget to look up – for there might just be a surprise waiting for you from our feathery friends who call Newcastle home.
